HOW TO START SELF-CLEAN
Remember to allow time for the oven to cool down and the oven door to unlock (approx. 1 hour) if you are planning to use the
oven after a self-clean cycle. Remove the broiler pan and broiler grid, all utensils and any foil. We recommend removing the
oven racks. If they go through the clean cycle, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide. With soap and water,
clean any soil from the oven frame and the area outside the gasket on the door. These areas heat during self-cleaning cycle so
soil could be burned on. To avoid heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperature, remove heavy spillovers in the oven
using hot soapy water and cloth before cleaning cycle.
We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
Suppose you want to set the oven for the Light Self-Cleaning cycle.

HOW TO SET SELF-CLEAN DELAY START
Suppose you want the oven to start later at 10:00 PM.
1 Follow the How To Start Slef-Clean steps 1-2.
3 Touch Delay Start pad. 4 To set time of day for the cleaning cycle to begin, touch
number pads 1000 and touch START pad.
Oven locks automatically. For immediate start, cleaning time appears and begins counting down. If you have selected Delay Start,
the oven will not turn on and the timer will not begin counting down until the time of day you have set. When self cleaning time
is completed, a signal will sound. It will not be possible to open the door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature
and “COOL” indicator goes off.
After a self-clean cycle, you may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools. Gently
lift the bottom element to wipe underneath it. It cannot be removed.
If the racks become hard to slide, apply a small amount of cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven racks.
Note: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move
birds to another well-ventilated room.
During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot to touch. Do not leave small children unattended
near the appliance.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before the self-cleaning cycle, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual.
This is normal and safe and should not cause alarm.
The glass ceramic cooktop and the Microwave Drawer can be used while the oven is self-cleaning.
